75 Episode 75 - A Gamecock, Part I (2/2)
Rather than survivors, the two areas became a land where monsters digging up the dead bodies lived.
'Nonsense.' He was shocked by the fact.
'We shouldn't hear this.'
Dangjin Yeongdeok Expressway...
On the road across from Sejong City, he was listening to Sejong City Hall and Sejong Government Complex, and he could hear the monsters and beasts flocking to eat the leftovers in the mass graves.
”Well, there's a really big monster here, right? Are you sure there's a blue-grade monster?”
He could hear her voice. However, he could not respond to the sound. He couldn't afford it.
'There's only one thing that can make a sound here…' This was the stage of the blue-grade monster, and of course, this was not the place where such a noise was allowed.
It was nothing else, but a blue-grade monster.
There was no need to feel fear, but the existence alone made the monsters below the yellow-grade stupid!
But if there was such a monster, why was there so much noise? There was a monster loitering to eat a broken body? Even animals were running around in the collapsed city?
It was evidence. This was no longer the territory of the monster.
'That's ridiculous.'
At that moment, he quickly took out the thermos bottle and drank the coffee in it. It was ridiculous to drink coffee in an urgent situation, a situation where there was no room in his mind, but it was a more desperate act for himself.
”Hey!”
He ignored her words toward him and began to think with only coffee. Using the Hearing of the Bell-tailed Rat, he interpreted the information repeatedly by accepting the sounds.
'Damn it.' His reason and knowledge always returned the same answer to the information.
'I hope it's not the worst scenario.' There was no more blue-grade monster in Sejong City!
Gulp! In the end, he accepted the fact with the coffee that he had been tasting.
”Are you sure there's a monster here? I want an answer.” She urged him to answer. However, her voice was not audible to him.
There was only one thing he could hear. - Tututu! It was the gunshots that started to fill the Sejong Government Complex that had collapsed at some point.
3.
Tutu! A gunshot broke through the wreckage of the collapsed building.
Tutu! The shot was quite plain, and it had a lightness that could never be produced by frightened, mad pulling of the trigger. It was evident that the owner of this gun was now a veteran of many experiences and battlefields.
”Hey! Body! How are you?”
”Legs, I got my leg bitten.”
”Be careful, You asshole! You are damn bitten!”
”Did I want to be bitten? The monster bit me.”
Such a veteran had no choice but to spit out a whimper in front of his fellows.
Tutu!
Veteran Lee Hyung-woo, who saw monsters with shapes similar to wolves trying to come back, turned his head again and looked at his fellow Pak Jin-seo, who was pressing his left shin with a rag to stop the bleeding.
Park, who felt Lee's gaze, said immediately. ”Don't let your eyes wander, but focus on the front! If they come, you're done, too!”
”You looked aside, I'm fine.”
”Damn, I am envious of you.”
The disputing, the harsh words came and went. But they both knew that they did not need to say them.
”...I'llslow them down here, so you run.”
And they knew that they no longer needed to be scolded by words that were no longer true.
”Don't be funny.”
”Don't shoot the drama, Lee, we're here to deliver the news, not to come to die together.”
”There's Mud Troll flesh, and that's enough to recover if you can afford it.”
”It's an emergency! I'm not using it for this!”
”Fuck, you're using it for this! When else do you use it?”
”Stay with me, you idiot! Our job is to deliver the news to him! Forget it? What happened?”
They knew, but they could not stop the fake argument. When they stopped the quarrel, one of them would be bait and the other would have to live with regret for the rest of his life.
”Fuck, fuck…” Eventually, Lee wept unknowingly. The fact that there was no one here to quarrel like this made his heart beat cold.
Park took something out of his pocket for Lee. It was candy.
Cheap candy one could see when one went to a restaurant and finished one's bill at the counter.
It was all coffee candy.
”You should eat all of this.”
Tutu! Lee, who took another shot before answering, confirmed the candy and laughed bitterly.
”You're fucking shit, you're fucking shitting me. What the hell is that coffee-flavored candy…”
”Well, it's an amulet. Our good luck charm.”
Aooo!
The conversation, which was not likely to end, was ended by a wolf's cry. The wolf's Howling was so fierce that it was not comparable to a normal wolf.
As soon as they heard it, Lee and Park shut their mouths to the Howling, which made the whole body get goosebumps, dented, and sent shivers down the spine. The gunshots also stopped.
'Aah!' Lee's fingers were frozen when he was exposed to the Howling.
”Fire, Lee Hyung-woo asshole!” Park forced all his energy and shouted toward Lee.
Lee pulled the trigger with a chuckle.
But all he could hear was a knock on the empty magazine. His face turned white, and Park shouted out with a red face, ”You idiot! Go away! Run! Go!” Park, who squeezed his voice, picked up the K2 rifle that lay next to him. He clearly held a scary weapon, but it was as useless as a death-row convict in front of the death penalty.
”Go!”
Lee couldn't get away with leaving his companion.
”Go, fuck off! Go!” Park made a sound again toward Lee.
Thump! At that moment a man fell on the ground from above. A spiderweb-like crack started under the feet of the man, and sand dust scattered in shock waves.
The only thing that glistened between the clouds of dust was black Eyes.
The eyes were full of a fearsome dignity that no other monster could compare to. However, Lee and Park, who looked at the pupils, burst into tears.
”Ma-Master!”
